Midwest Book Review, Margaret Lane, December 2006

The average clothing manufacturer sells to a size six, but the average American woman is a size sixteen. When it comes to that very specialized area of clothing designs called the wedding dress, the bride needs to look her very best within traditional gown parameters and doesn't need the stress of going through the usual guess work associated with choosing clothing that will be stylish and appropriate for full-figured women. In "Down That Aisle In Style: A Wedding Guide For Full-Figured Women", Chamein Canton draws upon her many years of experience and expertise in the wedding industry to provide sound advice and moral-boosting encouragement on how to use the fundamentals of design and style to acquire the perfect gown for that perfect day. Profusely illustrated and with a truly "user friendly" text that is both informed and informative (and occasionally inspiring!), "Down That Aisle In Style" should be considered 'must' reading for full-figured brides-to-be.

Polygamy: The Mormon Enigma

The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (the Mormons) is renowned throughout the world for its humanitarian efforts, the strong work ethic of its members, their adherence to a strong moral code, their dedication to family, and their loyalty to their communities and nations. But not unlike any large religious organization, the church has espoused practices and doctrines that were received critically by those same communities and nations. Among these, the best known is the Mormon belief in polygamy.

Polygamy, also known as plural marriage, is by no means unknown to the world. Christians have long debated Biblical polygamy. Arabic and far eastern harems have long been the subject of exotic fiction. From The Arabian Nights. Ali Baba and the Forty Thieves to Rodgers. and Hammerstein.s The King and I, the idea of a man having multiple wives fascinated audiences.until it happened in their own back yard.

Beginning as early as 1831, Mormon prophet Joseph Smith and other early church leaders began marrying multiple women in obedience to their belief in a revelation they claimed came from Jesus Christ. From the moment their actions became public knowledge in the 1840.s, religious organizations, local communities and the U.S. Federal Government actively worked to stop the practice, even if it meant destroying the church. From that moment on, the Mormon doctrine of polygamy was elevated from the odd practice of an obscure American religion to a plank in political platforms.affecting the lives of hundreds of the nation.s leaders.

Today polygamy is practiced by many people including Mormon fundamentalists, Christians, and Muslims. Polygamy can be found in 78% of the world.s cultures and is hotly debated in Christian congregations and political rallies throughout the United States, and its decriminalization or legalization in Canada seems to be only a matter of time.

Join Mr. Howick as he discusses the religious, social, political, and legal enigma of Mormon polygamy.

Collinsfort Village

Dennis Pearson grew up reading the stories of popular author Karolyne von Frankenburgh, but no one had ever seen Fräuline von Frankenburgh — until now, maybe. When Dennis finds a revealing clue (a portion of a letter from Frankenburgh.s publisher), he enlists his two closest friends, Bear, a lovable Suburban-driving grizzly who works for the local cable company, and Griff, twenty feet of half-eagle, half-lion, dragon-slaying griffin who reads stories to children at the local library, to help him solve the mystery. But Dennis soon realizes that there is more than just one secret in his hometown of Collinsfort Village. And in the process, he learns the value of trust and the true meaning of friendship as he, Bear, and Griff face mistaken identities, cover-ups, a bit of espionage, and the history of a dragon who hasn't flown for nearly one-hundred years.
